Optimal imaging parameters for fiber-orientation estimation in diffusion MRI.

This study uses Monte Carlo simulations to investigate the optimal value of the diffusion weighting factor b for estimating white-matter fiber orientations using diffusion MRI with a standard spherical sampling scheme. We devise an algorithm for determining the optimal echo time, pulse width, and pulse separation in the pulsed-gradient spin-echo sequence for a specific value of b. The Monte Car...

Relating Fiber Crossing in Hardi to Intellectual Function

Introduction: Localizing brain structures and pathways associated with intellectual performance and cognition may clarify the networks involved, their development, and their dysfunction in disease. Here we introduce a measure of fiber crossing computed from high angular resolution diffusion images (HARDI), with the goal of better characterizing complex white matter microstructure. We aimed to d...

Design of a Photonic Bandgap Fiber with Optimized Parameters to Achieve Ultra-Low Confinement Loss

In this paper, a novel design of all-solid photonic bandgap fiber with ultra-low confinement loss is proposed. The confinement loss is reduced remarkably by managing the number of rods rings, up-doping level, pitch value, and rods diameters. Moreover, the designed PCF shows ultra-flattened dispersion in L- and U-band. Furthermore, a new design, based on introducing of an extra ring of air h...

Fiber Bundle Estimation and Parameterization

Individual white matter fibers cannot be resolved by current magnetic resonance (MR) technology. Many fibers of a fiber bundle will pass through an individual volume element (voxel). Individual visualized fiber tracts are thus the result of interpolation on a relatively coarse voxel grid, and an infinite number of them may be generated in a given volume by interpolation. This paper aims at crea...
